Defensive Fullback Gary Pick ens added another six-pointer, also by completing a long run. Outstanding Lineman Howard Allman, left guard for the regulars, was one of the outstanding linemen on the field. Center Max Kendig and Right Guard Terry Picknell also were de fensive standouts for the regulars. •Quarterback Barney Holland’s choice of plays was effective and contributed to the regulars’ ad vance. Valuable Gains Varsity Fullback Howard Hos tetler made several valuable gains, and Quarterback John Davis of the reserves turned in an outstanding performance.

(Fritz I Crisler believes today’s col lege football players are not as well conditioned ns those of a few years ago. The former Michigan head coach .tired his views at a football writers luncheon. “Coaches today.” he said, “have only about two hours for squad I'. actice daily and in that time have to work three of four defenses plus various forms of the two platoon system. That leaves very little time to devote to conditioning work." SwimmingMeet Deadline Set Deadline for entries in the intra school swimming meet is Nov. 3, Rod Harman has announced.

Oregon State Hosts Montana In Corvallis Two air-minded football teams, each with an extra special reason to win this weekend, will collide on Bell field at 1:30 p.m. Saturday when Oregon State plays host to the University of Montana Grizz lies. After dropping their first- four starts, Kip Taylor's Beavers will go all out to record their initial vic tory of the season at the expense of the Grizzlies. Montana, with one of its strongest teams in history, will attempt to score its first win over Oregon State. In 11 previous meetings of the two schools OSC won nine and two contests ended in ties. Aerial Circus An aerial circus is in the offing as both clubs possess outstanding passers. For Montana it’s Quarter back Tom Kingsford, who last week ranked ninth in the nation with 41 completions in 76 throws for a bril liant .539 percentage. Not far be hind the Grizzly ace is OSC’s Gene Morrow, also a quarterback. In two and a half games Morrow has con nected on 25 of 50 pitches for an even .500 average. Two standout receivers will be the chief targets for these accurate clnickers. They are Ray Bauer, Montana end who snagged 18 aer ials in the Grizzlies' first four games; and John Thomas, ace Or ange wingman, with 22 catches to his credit in four starts.

Only 12,000 spectators are ex pected to file into Los Angeles’ spacious Coliseum which will hold 102,000. Irate Alumni With irate alumni breathing hot on his neck, Trojan Coach Jeff Cravath will try to get his team on the winning trail for the first time this season. USC, in pre-campaign predictions, was a strong favorite to cop the PCC bunting. But the only place Jim Aiken where Troy’s strength lias come through is on paper. USC dropped its opener to Iowa, 20-14, had to rally for three touch downs in the final period to gain a 20-20 tie with a mediocre Washing ton State eleven, lost a narrow 13-7 decision to California, and then was bounced by a previously winless Navy squad, 27-14. Spotty Record Oregon’s record, heading into this contest, the 17th in the serjes between the two teams, has also been on the spotty side. The inex perienced Ducks have dropped con tests to UCLA 28-0, Idaho 14-0, Cal ifornia 28-7, and St. Mary’s 18-13, while collecting a 21-13 nod from j Montana. The Trojans, who have won 12 games, lost three with one ending in a tie in the rivalry, have been plagued by spotty quarterbacking all season. Wilbur Robertson, Frank Gifford, and the touted sophomore Ed Demirjian have failed to deliver in this key position of Troy’s T-for (Please turn to page seven) October 2 7 “A Life of Her Own” “Lady Without Passport” October 27 “The Red Shoes” 4-9311 40431 October 27 “Horsemen of the High Sierras” “Colt 45” MC KENZIES^, "I SPRINGFIELD, 7-Z/OI October 27 ‘Return of the Frontiersman’ “Destination Moon” VARSITY ¥ oprhsGfiflp I 7-3403 October 27 “South of Death Valley” “Marshall of El Dorado” CASCADE Drive In Theatre October 27 “Badman’s Territory” Calamity Jane and Sam Bass Dance Tonight at WILLAMETTE PARK * Curt Finch and his Orchestra Admission— 83c plus tax Phone — 7-3484 FOR RESERVATIONS OPERATED BY U. of O.
